Chapter 327 Happen to See It
The guards open the door. Xia Ning takes the meal box and goes inside. The guards close the door after her.
The room is very large and tidy, but it has only a little furniture. There are only some essential pieces such as table, chairs and bed.
Because it is under the ground, a filament lamp is on. It is imaginable that the sun is never visible here.
Xia Ning glances around and looks at the man sitting on the chair.
He wears a clean and tidy army uniform. His face looks as handsome as a G.o.d. He closes his eyes with no emotions. Without noticing the waves of his chest, people may mistake him to be a statue.
The empty room is simple. However, it is equipped with a sense of inviolable dignity because of the presence of this man.
It is Yi Yunrui!
Xia Ning’s heart jumps violently at once. She feels sad all of a sudden!
She has the impulsion to cry out.
What a dignified man he is. He is so awesome. But he is locked up here with soldiers guarding outside!
How can it be called reporting on his duty?
He is obviously under detention!
It is all because of her…
Xia Ning feels heartbroken. She lowers her head to take a deep breath and controls her tears.
She almost cries, but she has to try her best to control herself. At least, she can’t let Yi Yunrui know that she feels sad.
She puts the meal box beside Yi Yunrui and takes a step backwards, “Commander, here is your supper.”
Yi Yunrui trembles when he hears the voice. He opens his eyes at once!
Yi Yunrui turns to look at her. When he sees his lovely wife, who is standing there with her hands holding together, Yi Yunrui feels so surprised that he can’t speak a word!
Xia Ning is aware of the eyes staring at her. She purses her lips and takes another step backwards.
“Commander, please have your supper, or, it will get cold.” It is almost eight in the evening. Yi Yunrui is provided with the supper so late. Are those people bullying him?
Yi Yunrui looks at Xia Ning quietly. Something in his eyes is waving fiercely. After quite a while, he gently opens his mouth, “OK.”
Xia Ning hasn’t heard of Yi Yunrui’s voice for quite some time. The word OK sounds extraordinarily clear in this silent and isolated room. The magnetic voice comforts Xia Ning a lot.
To be honest, she really likes listening to Yi Yunrui’s speeches. She likes his voice very much. It sounds stable. It is a kind of enjoyment for her to listen to him.
Yi Yunrui doesn’t say any other words. He takes up the chopsticks to eat his supper quietly. He is always a man of polite manners. The elegance he shows while eating is as dignified as a king.
Xia Ning feels her heart ache badly. She tightly holds her hands. She grits her teeth. She is afraid that she may fail to control herself and cry unconsciously.
She feels her heart painful terribly!
If only she could be stronger. If only she could protect Yi Yunrui!
She feels herself…really useless!
Yi Yunrui quietly eats. He slowly finishes the meal and puts down the chopsticks. But he doesn’t lift his head, “Have you had supper?”
Xia Ning feels slightly shocked. She nods, “Yes.”
“When did you eat?”
Xia Ning slightly hesitates. She feels sincere concern from the tone of Yi Yunrui.
Wait. Can Yi Yunrui know that it is her here?
Xia Ning mildly lifts her head. She glances at Yi Yunrui, who is lowering his head. Xia Ning withdraws her eyes immediately, “I had supper just now.”
“What did you have?”
Xia Ning thinks for a while, “I had roasted mutton.”
“Where did you have roasted mutton?”
Why? She wonders why Yi Yunrui asks in detail.
Xia Ning surprisingly lifts her head to look at Yi Yunrui again. At this time, her eyes get contact with his at the very right time.
The contact seems to produce thunder. The whole world turns dark as if there are only her and him left.
Xia Ning feels pa.s.sionately moved. Her lips slightly tremble. Her eyes turn red. She grits her teeth to turn her face away. She sniffs, “I had roasted mutton in Roast Ji snack bar. Someone treated me.”
“Who’s treat is it?”
Yi Yunrui speaks when he stands up to walk to her.
They are close to each other. Xia Ning can smell the fresh fragrance of Yi Yunrui. They haven’t seen each other for quite some days. Xia Ning feels surrounded by the aroma she has been missing. She has the desire to hold Yi Yunrui tightly.
However, she doesn’t know whether there are any monitors. She doesn’t dare to act recklessly.
“A friend I just knew in Beijing.”
“A man or a woman?”
“A woman.”
“Turn to look at me.”
Xia Ning feels her heart jump. She turns around and looks at Yi Yunrui’s intense eyes. She flushes at once!
“Don’t lower your head.” Yi Yunrui looks at her tenderly. He holds out his hand but draws it back at once, “Just like this, look at me.”
Xia Ning feels her heart beating violently. Her breath goes faster. The stare makes her…
“Do you miss me?”
“Yes.”
“Do you miss me very much?”
“Yes!”
Yi Yunrui clenches his hands. He opens his palms and clenches them again. Then, he can’t help mildly lifting his hand again to remove the hair from her forehead, “The army uniform…fits you very well.”
Xia Ning purses her lips to smile, “Do I look good?”
“Yes.” Yi Yunrui pauses, “You look good no matter what you wear.”
Xia Ning feels warm in her heart, “I am leaving soon…”
“Don’t take the risk again.”
“Oh?”
“Sorry to make you worried.” Yi Yunrui gives a light sigh, “You promised me that you would obediently wait for me. Don’t take any risks like this again.”
Xia Ning purses her lips silently. If it is possible, she really wants to take Yi Yunrui away from here!
“Why are you here? Didn’t you say that you would be reporting on your duty?”
“You are silly.” Yi Yunrui smiles, “I am safe here. It is very quiet here. I can miss you every day and no one will disturb me.”
Xia Ning feels her heart ache. Her nose turns red. Xia Ning sniffs, “When will you be able to go back?”
“Soon. Very soon.”
She wants to ask how soon it will be. However, she stops the words by the tip of her tongue.
“I am, I am leaving now.” She is unwilling to leave. She doesn’t want to leave.
“Okay.” Yi Yunrui gently responds. His eyes look deep. The air around seems to get burning. He slowly gets close to his lovely wife and gives her a gentle kiss on her lips.
When his lips touch hers, Xia Ning’s body suddenly trembles!
His kiss is soft, sweet and fragrant. She can’t get tired of it all her life. However, she has to control herself for now.
Yi Yunrui takes a deep breath. He grits his teeth and turns around, “I have finished my supper. Please take it away.”
Xia Ning still feels the warmth of him on her lips. She has not collected herself. She stands there blankly.
“Ahem!” Yi Yunrui is aware of no responses behind. He makes a mild cough.
“Oh. OK.” Xia Ning is drawn back to consciousness. She takes up the meal box hurriedly and looks sincerely at Yi Yunrui’s back.
Time flies. She doesn’t want to leave.
“Commander…”
“I will stay here well for deep self-investigation. You may take the things away.”
Xia Ning purses her lips. Yi Yunrui has his back on her. She understands that he is unwilling to let her go.
OK. She has to leave as soon as possible. She knows that he also feels painful in his heart.
“I am leaving.” Xia Ning says in a low voice and turns to leave.
She has to withstand it. She has to control herself!
Rui will come back very soon!
The guards open the door. Xia Ning lowers her head to go out with the meal box.
The door is closed behind her. Xia Ning feels her heart ache. She lowers her head to leave.
“Commander!”
Xia Ning hears the guy at the reception saluting loudly from far away.
Xia Ning feels her heart jump. She mildly lifts her head. When she sees clearly the comer, she feels panic all of a sudden.
It is Mei Ruo coming!
Mei Ruo nods and goes straight towards Xia Ning.
It is bad. If Mei Ruo knows that Xia Ning comes here, it will bring some disadvantages to Yi Yunrui!
Xia Ning grits her teeth. She takes a step back to spare the room for Mei Ruo’s pa.s.sing. Mei Ruo goes past her hurriedly before she speaks anything.
Xia Ning gives a sigh of relief. She holds the meal box tightly and goes hurriedly to the young man to put down the meal box. Then, without saying anything, she turns to leave.
As if she realizes something unusual, Mei Ruo stops. She turns around and happens to see Xia Ning hurriedly going away.
She feels that she has never met the guard before.
Wait. When she went past just now, the guard didn’t salute!
Thinking of this, Mei Ruo feels her heart tightened. She walks hurriedly after Xia Ning. At the time, Xia Ning has gone far away. Mei Ruo takes some steps and stops. Her eyes glimpse. She mildly lifts her lips.
Oh. It is you.
“Commander, what’s wrong?” The young guard asks.
“Nothing. Is the girl a newcomer?”
The guard hesitates, “Commander, I don’t know. It is arranged by the management.”
Mei Ruo lifts her eyebrows, “I see.”
The door is opened. Mei Ruo goes into the room. Yi Yunrui stands with his back to her. It seems that he is thinking about something.
Mei Ruo screws her eyes, “Commander, did you just have your supper?”
Yi Yunrui mildly turns his head, “Yeah.”
“Normally, supper is available at six. Why is it sent here at eight?”
“I don’t know.” Yi Yunrui responds briefly.
He didn’t have any appet.i.te without his wife here.
The soldiers sent the supper several times.
However, it is surprising that in the last time, it is sent by his lovely wife.
Mei Ruo is aware of the deliberate ignorance. She feels displeased, “It seems that Commander Yi is hiding something.”
“Isn’t everything under control?” Yi Yunrui responds in a cold voice, “Colonel Mei, please mind your words.”
“Is it?” Mei Ruo doesn’t agree, “In my opinion, there is something wrong with the new soldier who sent you the meal just now.”
Yi Yunrui slightly darkens his eyes, “There is nothing wrong with the management’s arrangement.”
Mei Ruo meaningfully smiles, “Rui, are you beating around the bush till now?”
Yi Yunrui gives no responses.
Seemingly, there is something wrong.
Mei Ruo feels angry with Yi Yunrui’s att.i.tude. She stayed with him for many years, but she had never seen him so concerned about any other women including her.
She was Yi Yuntian’s woman. Yi Yunrui liked her once. However, suddenly, she became someone hated by both of the brothers. Why?
Did she ever do anything wrong?
She obviously earned Yi Yunrui’s heart. It was undoubtedly that he liked her. Why was she dumped after Xia Ning’s appearance?
Were all the things Yi Yunrui did before just tricks?
Did Xia Ning do anything to make Yi Yunrui hate Mei Ruo so much?
“Yi Yunrui, you know what I saw. I feel very uncomfortable with your att.i.tude.”
